Q-
How much does it cost for camp?
A: $105 for each Camp. We offer two potential discounts. Same camper signing
up for Complete + Skills camp at the same location the same week subtract
$10 from the total. Also, if siblings attend the same camp and location,
subtract $5 from each camp signed up for.
Q
:Is space still available for the camp I want to attend and should I
send my check?
A :Visit the "Baseball Dates/Locations"
or "Softball Dates/Locations" page
of this site and it will show the current availability. If camp fills
while your application is on its way to us, we will call you and give
you first choice of other camps or return your check to you while
keeping you on a waiting list.
Q
:My
daughter loves baseball, does she have to attend the softball camp?
A :She may choose either the baseball or softball
camp. Both are great. As she gets older she will naturally transition
into fastpitch softball which is now highly competitive and very fun.
UW Husky pitching coach, Lance Glasoe, designed the curriculum for our
softball camp. Your daughter will receive excellent instruction in a high
energy, fun, instructional atmosphere. If she can't attend a softball
camp, many girls have attended our baseball camps and loved it! The base
skills are the same except for pitching. Given our camps are coordinated
by certified teachers, you can be assured that your daughter will feel
comfortable and have a great time. Some girls have signed up with a friend
to make them feel more comfortable.
Q
: Do you provide Scholarships?
A
: No. Unfortunately we are unable to offer scholarships.
Q-
Can I reserve a spot via phone or email?
A- No. All openings are secured on a first come, first served basis
via US Mail only. A completed application and full payment must be received.
Q
: How do we get signed up?
A
:Simple. Just go to our Sign-up
info.
Print out the form and follow the instructions : it's that simple.
Q
: What kind of staff do you assemble?
A
: Each of our staff members must meet at least
one of the following criterion;1) Played professional or college ball
or 2) Coached at the high school level. Additionally, at least one certified
teacher is on each staff as the coordinator to ensure safety, fair play
and proper structure. Our staff is listed for your review on our staff
page.
Q
: My child wants to attend both the Complete and Baseball Skills camp.
Is this OK?
A
: Yes. In fact, this is quite common. The two camps are quite different
in structure.
Q
:My child is attending both camps. Is there supervision provided from
12:30-1:30?
A : Yes. Direct supervision
is provided.
Q
: Your Baseball Skills camp is for kids aged 9-12. My child is only
8. Can he/she attend too?
A : We are hesitant because the skills camp is
technique oriented. Some 8-year olds have handled it quite well. We
have had 8-year olds attend both camps as well. But please keep in mind
that it is a long day and can sometimes be very warm. In the end, the
discretion is yours.
Q : I see there's quite an
age range. Are the kids grouped together or are they separated?
A : Kids are predominantly grouped by age. Ability
plays a role as well. Common sense and the expertise of our coaches
lend itself to appropriate grouping of the kids. Safety and the ability
to learn while having fun are the guidelines. Our coaches are very attentive
on the first day of camp to appropriate grouping of the campers.
Q
:Can I pay by credit card?
A : No. All registrations are handled on a first
come, first served basis. If camp is full, your check and registration
will be returned to you right away. Because we are a seasonal business
it works best for us to handle transactions by check.
Q
: Can I get a receipt?
A : Please use your canceled check as your receipt.
Q- I sent my application and
check. Did I get in?
A- Please allow us a few days to process your
application, particularly as camps approach when the volume of applications
is heavy. If you're in, you'll receive immediate email confirmation.
If you're not in, we will call you directly to discuss your options.
Either way you will hear from us in a prompt manner. There are two exceptions.
If you are signing up for either the Bainbridge or Sumner locations,
you will need to contact those respective parks departments. They do
not send out confirmations.
Q- What should we bring to camp?
A: Dress athletically, ready to play ball! Be
prepared for any weather. Bring your glove, cap, a snack (or full lunch
if you're with us all day), plenty of water and sunscreen. You may bring
a bat too. With anything of value, be sure your name is clearly marked.
For catcher camp, we do provide catcher's gear, but you may bring your
own.
Q-
Camp starts next week. Is it too late to get in and what do I do?
A:
Check our Dates/Locations pages for availability. If it says "still
open" there is indeed space for your players. Assuming you live
in the Puget Sound region, you should still mail your registration and
payment in as late as Thursday's mail. It will arrive to us in time.
If it is Friday, Saturday or Sunday, you need to do two things:
1) Call us at 360-802-2232 and leave a voice mail with the following
information (be sure to speak clearly and deliberately)
* Location of the camp (Seattle, Tacoma, Poulsbo, etc.)
* Camp attending (Complete and/or Pitcher/Hitting, Catcher/Hitting,
Infield/Hitting)
* Name of camper(s). Be sure to spell first and last name.
* Age of camper(s)
2) Bring a completed form and payment (check or exact cash) to camp
on Monday, arriving 15 minutes prior to the camp start time.
